About the piece
A set of sorrowful pieces, the title reflecting a preoccupation that runs through much of Jensen's output.
He suffered from tuberculosis for most of his adult life, which forced him to abandon teaching and travel repeatedly in search of a climate that might help. He died at forty two, having composed steadily through years of serious illness.
